Your preliminary test has been marked…

Dear Mr. _____

Your preliminary test has been marked and I am pleased to tell you that according to your result, it would be worth your while to take the official supervised Mensa test.

It is only fair to remind you that the results of the unsupervised tests have not always proved reliable: they should, therefore, be considered in the light of the exactness with which you followed the instructions.

If you choose to go ahead with the Mensa Supervised test please go to http://www.mensacanada.org/proctortest.php to set up a supervised test date/time.  Please note that the testing session is $90 and two standardized tests will be administered which last approximately one and half hours.  If you score 98% or higher on either one of the two tests administered, you will automatically become a member for one year.

Alternatively, if we do not have a proctor in your area, you can elect to be tested by a psychologist licensed by your provincial psychological association, who is an accepted specialist in I.Q. testing.  We are more than willing to accept such test evidence provided it is approved by our Mensa Consulting Psychologist and we urge you to try this course if you wish.

GOOD LUCK!

Sincerely yours,

Amy Sitoski

So do I bother with the full test?  What do I get out of it?  Bragging rights?

    You get bragging rights and free coffee for a year from McDonald’s… oh yeah… you also get a lighter wallet after you donate you $90 to their bank accounts. I think you also get a neat sweater vest, 3 pocket protectors and a subscription to the monthly news letter “Smarter than the ordinary folk”.

    Don’t mind me, I am just jealous that I missed by 2 points in getting that same letter delivered to my house =)
